If you want one, go for it. Once you set in that seat you lose 40 years and 50lbs. There is nothing like the sound acceleration of a V8 engine. Life is too short.

At 63 years old, and in fairly decent shape, I want to enjoy the Corvette experience while it is still comfortable to do so. Thankfully, my wife is on board with the decision. Thanks.
